its almost like when you’re in the water.

your eyes are shut tight as hell and its quiet and you hear a little of what’s going on above the water and it feels good to just be there feeling the water and you know you’re pretty much safe and all but deep down inside somewhere you fear the monster of the sea, the darkness, not knowing what will happen to you because your eyes are shut tight and you cannot hear anything all that clearly after all.

but you don’t want to open your eyes at all because the slightly more prevalent fear, of course, that it’ll hurt them eyes, that it’ll sting that you won’t like what you see or that the sting in your eyes won’t be all that worth it just to find out things.

when you do it’s nothing but just, pure, unadulterated, revelation.
